today

well i got to work less than 10 minutes late, which i was amazed by, the boyf got here so fast!!!!!!! minutes before he arrived i was doing laundry and my parents walked thru my front door... i was all wtf!? but they were bored and came to do my garden. im just sat talking to the wonderful fantastic Felicia whilst drinking midouri and pineapple juice, im on my second (healthy pour)... if you dont already read Felicia's blog, you should, she has too sweet little boys and is getting married rather soon! sadly she lives in Canada else she'd be one of my bridesmaids!

um...

im not gonna put this in paragraphs cos i cant be bothered

-i now have the same color hair as this



which what im aspiring to have by the wedding, length, curls and color.

-we've managed to get thru all my greys anatomy box sets, we're 2 discs into the last one now. we've past whats on terrestrial tv. woop. i have no idea whats left after this. a full season? 2? it think 2.

-our bed has developed a severe squeek. so much so that we had to stop cos i was giggling my ass off at it, which made Glyn start.

-the shelf in the kitchen, which had loads of plates on, about 10 bottles of different types of oil, jugs, tupperware... collapsed. the kitchen was built on the cheap, (the insides dont match cupboard to cupboard, in either kitchen) but anyway they used cheap plastic things that hold up the shelves. they bent. they dropped. we were in the dining room and heard a crash. it took a while to work out what it was as nothing visible happened as the cupboard door was shut, nothing was broken tho. thankfully. annoyed tho.

-2 of my 3 orchids are dying. i dont know what im doing wrong. i might try special orchid food, but some of the flowers are dropping off :(

-im sick of doing washing. im sick of cooking. im sick of cleaning. im sick of looking at piles of detritus, unfinished rooms, and im sick of needing another set of drawers and 2 bookcases from ikea that we A) cant afford and B) cant fit in my car even if we put it on my credit card

-my back hurts, my neck hurts. i hurt. i have so many knots in my back, i cant wait to see my physio on thursday.

-we started watching The Informant. the boyf turned it off, it was boring, we didnt even get halfway thru

-i bought a Swarovski crystal oyster with a pearl set in it for my mum and dad for their 30th anniversary. im amazed cos mum actually loved it. dad had me get her flowers from him. so i did from my new fave florists. she liked them, yet still had a little complain. it wouldnt be her if she didnt. theyre beautiful tho. whether she whines or not.

-more and more ideas are formulating inside my head. for the wedding. not just general ideas.

-crazy weather today, it was very warm, lovely and sunny, and then we got an amazing rainstorm, so much so i set off from my house in the sun, and nearly had to pull over on the way to frannys cos i couldnt see out my windscreen

-speaking of windscreens. mine has a chip in it, the boyf and i were off to Trafford Centre (due to me seeing smoke plumes near the motorway and me wanting to find out why) and anyway, something hit my windscreen, hard, it shook the car, if whatever it was would have gone thru id now be a widow.

-smoke plumes were from horrific moorland fires in nearby halifax

-the boyf is taking me to NYC for my 26th, but it will be his 40th 2 months later, i might incorporate that into it, if i can

-im getting fat

and now im off to sleep, goodnight x

this may be a mega long post me thinks...

1) IVE FOUND A DRESS!!!!!!!!!!!
A FREAKING WEDDING DRESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

its gorgeous :)
and ivory
which scares me
i didnt want pale
but its sweet
and short
and 50s

2) ive got the boyf addicted to Grey's Anatomy. he loves it so so so much

3) im loving my Blackberry. its taken a while to get used to but im comfortable with it now, only the alarm is bugging me. and its message tone. and the expensive applications.

4) i came home the other day and the boyf had put a second coat of teal on my study walls and then yesterday we put part of my desk together. he's told me hes going to touch up the paintwork on monday as he has 4 days off for the holiday and then we can put together the rest of my desk and we can get the two Billy bookcases i need from ikea to go in the room and i can start to set the room up and then maybe, just maybe i can go thru the ridic pile of shite im harbouring in the room next to it!

5) ive almost gotten thru the washing. it just seems to build up!

6) the plant i potted up outside are looking sweet and make it look more homey

7) the planning permission for our garage has gone thru :)

8) im bored with my hair, i want it long again

9) as we speak the boyf has just dropped cheesecake on our sofa and it trying to spray it with vanish. i dont think it will work but im clueless as i dont tend to drop stuff on sofas...

10) we have a tall cupboard unit in the the kitchen and its been a bit of a mess, i pulled out all its contents the other day and tetris packed it :)

11) we got a delivery from my mother, she sent my fridge freezer and my books by removal man. instead of now haveing a tiny freezer and a tiny fridge we have 2 spacious of each! hopefully this will stop our mini fridge freezing everything now it has more room for the air to circulate

12) well i cant just leave it at 11. im reading a book on dogs atm. its brilliant. factual about why they do the things they do. i had a break after reading the first 6 books by Debbie Macomber in her Cedar Cove series, the 7th doesnt come out in this country til august i think it is. i cant honestly wait.

lots and lots of things

-i set fire to popcorn in the microwave at work

-all the smoke has given me a horrid cough and taken my voice, at best i rasp and talk in a hoarse spluttering manner

-ive got the boyf addicted to greys

-ive been to 2 garden centres today and bought loads of things; ceramic planters, herbs, spring plants, food, pretty beach themed things for the bedroom

-lisa and i went to ikea where i bought more things; a lamp, a desk, a shelf, a picture frame, some tupperware, a jug, a toy for my cousins baby, and... er... a chair! um... i also scouted for all the other things we need, its taken forever to get this much- when my front bedroom/my office is finished at least i can get my desk in there...

-so lots of painting has to be finished this week!

-mum has orgnised for my fridge-freezer from my old house and all my books to be delivered this week also

-i planted up some stuff from the first garden centre this morning and tomorrow i plan to finish some more!

-i have 6 loads of laundry to do. ugh, it never seems to go down, we'll have to see how much i manage tomorrow

-im getting used to my Blackberry
